The Committee on Education and Publicity of the Anti-Tuberculosis League, Albany Branch of the State Charities Aid Association, have investigated a number of boarding places in the Adirondacks for tuberculosis patients of moderate means and can recommend the following list of boarding houses as suitable places for such patients.
